@article{oai:nagoya.repo.nii.ac.jp:00029480, author = {市川, 遥 and ICHIKAWA, Haruka}, journal = {JunCture : 超域的日本文化研究}, month = {Mar}, note = {In this article, I analyze how Okazaki Yūichi, the central figure of Ibuse Masuji’s Yōhai taichō (A Far-Worshiping Commander, 1950), is drawn. Until now, this work has been interpreted as a story depicting a shift in values triggered by the defeat in the war. However, in this article, I offer a new interpretation, which treats Yūichi as a disabled veteran. From this perspective, I analyze the story and its representations of these veterans. First, Yūichi is portrayed as a lunatic (kichigai) fixated on the War. I examine expressions in common with mifukuin, used to describe soldiers suffering the delusion that the war had never ended. Like these soldiers, Yūichi lives in both wartime and postwar time. Those times are never divided. Secondly, referring to articles dealing with disabled veterans at that time, I interpret Yūichi’s descriptions of his injured leg and limp (bikko) as metonymies or metaphors. For example, his injured leg acts as a metonym for people forced to move into postwar time and space. In addition, his crippled leg is a metaphor that shows the weight of the war that people endured. Furthermore, I confirm that such metaphors were common expressions in Japanese literature shortly after the war. Finally, I consider the interaction between the expressions kichigai and bikko. From the above analysis, this work reveals the scars of the war that people continued to hold in the midst of a change in values after the defeat. This conclusion will be an opportunity to reexamine the story itself given to postwar Japan’s time and space., 本稿は、JSPS科研費(特別研究員奨励費、課題番号19J15056)による研究成果の一部である。}, pages = {140--152}, title = {戦争の経験を引きずる : 井伏鱒二「遥拝隊長」と傷痍軍人表象からみる戦後}, volume = {11}, year = {2020} }
